git-instaweb relied on a pipe in a sed script, but this is not supported
by MacOS X sed when using BREs. git-instaweb relies on a working perl
in any case, and perl re are more consistent between platforms, so
replace sed invocation with an equivalent perl invocation.
Also, fix the documented -b "" to work without giving a spurious 'command

Now when using "git help -w cmd", we will try to show the HTML man
page "git-cmd.html" in your prefered web browser.
To do that "help.c" code will call a new shell script
"git-browse-help".
This currently works only if the HTML versions of the man page
have been installed in $(htmldir) (typically "/usr/share/doc/git-doc"),
so new target to do that is added to "Documentation/Makefile".
The browser to use can be configured using the "web.browser"
config variable.
We try to open a new tab in an existing web browser, if possible.

Apple ships a newer version of iconv with Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5/Darwin

9.x series; this should be good for at least a couple of years, when
Darwin 10 comes out and we can invert the sense of the test to

The `core.whitespace` configuration variable allows you to define what
`diff` and `apply` should consider whitespace errors for all paths in
the project (See gitlink:git-config[1]). This attribute gives you finer
control per path.
For example, if you have these in the .gitattributes:
frotz whitespace
nitfol -whitespace
xyzzy whitespace=-trailing
all types of whitespace problems known to git are noticed in path 'frotz'
(i.e. diff shows them in diff.whitespace color, and apply warns about
them), no whitespace problem is noticed in path 'nitfol', and the
default types of whitespace problems except "trailing whitespace" are
noticed for path 'xyzzy'. A project with mixed Python and C might want
to have:
*.c whitespace
*.py whitespace=-indent-with-non-tab
in its toplevel .gitattributes file.

This program dumps (parts of) a git repository in the format that
fast-import understands.
For clarity's sake, it does not use the 'inline' method of specifying
blobs in the commits, but builds the blobs before building the commits.
Since signed tags' signatures will not necessarily be valid (think
transformations after the export, or excluding revisions, changing
the history), there are 4 modes to handle them: abort (default),
ignore, warn and strip. The latter just turns the tags into
unsigned ones.

This replaces git-clean.sh with builtin-clean.c, and moves
git-clean.sh to the examples.
This also introduces a change in behavior when removing directories
explicitly specified as a path. For example currently:
1. When dir has only untracked files, these two behave differently:
$ git clean -n dir
$ git clean -n dir/
the former says "Would not remove dir/", while the latter would say
"Would remove dir/untracked" for all paths under it, but not the
directory itself.
With -d, the former would stop refusing, however since the user
explicitly asked to remove the directory the -d is no longer required.
2. When there are more parameters:
$ git clean -n dir foo
$ git clean -n dir/ foo
both cases refuse to remove dir/ unless -d is specified. Once again
since both cases requested to remove dir the -d is no longer required.
Thanks to Johannes Schindelin for the conversion to using the
parse-options API.

In a subsequent patch the path to the system-wide config file will be
computed. This is a preparation for that change. It turns all accesses
of ETC_GITCONFIG into function calls. There is no change in behavior.
As a consequence, config.c is the only file that needs the definition of
ETC_GITCONFIG. Hence, -DETC_GITCONFIG is removed from the CFLAGS and a
special build rule for config.c is introduced. As a side-effect, changing
the defintion of ETC_GITCONFIG (e.g. in config.mak) does not trigger a
complete rebuild anymore.

strchrnul() was introduced in glibc in April 1999 and included in

users would get to use the optimized version in glibc. Of the
remaining few some might get to use a slightly slower version
than necessary but probably not slower than what we have today.
Unfortunately, __GLIBC_PREREQ() macro was not available in glibc 2.1.1
which was short lived but already supported strchrnul(). Odd minority

The option parser takes argc, argv, an array of struct option
and a usage string. Each of the struct option elements in the array
describes a valid option, its type and a pointer to the location where the
value is written. The entry point is parse_options(), which scans through
the given argv, and matches each option there against the list of valid
options. During the scan, argv is rewritten to only contain the
non-option command line arguments and the number of these is returned.
Aggregation of single switches is allowed:
-rC0 is the same as -r -C 0 (supposing that -C wants an arg).
Every long option automatically support the option with the same name,
prefixed with 'no-' to unset the switch. It assumes that initial value for
strings are "NULL" and for integers is "0".
Long options are supported either with '=' or without:
--some-option=foo is the same as --some-option foo

This implements a smarter rename detector for exact renames, which
rather than doing a pairwise comparison (time O(m*n)) will just hash the
files into a hash-table (size O(n+m)), and only do pairwise comparisons
to renames that have the same hash (time O(n+m) except for unrealistic
hash collissions, which we just cull aggressively).
Admittedly the exact rename case is not nearly as interesting as the
generic case, but it's an important case none-the-less. A similar general
approach should work for the generic case too, but even then you do need
to handle the exact renames/copies separately (to avoid the inevitable
added cost factor that comes from the _size_ of the file), so this is
worth doing.
In the expectation that we will indeed do the same hashing trick for the
general rename case, this code uses a generic hash-table implementation
that can be used for other things too. In fact, we might be able to
consolidate some of our existing hash tables with the new generic code
in hash.[ch].
